iOS users spend dramatically more on e-commerce. I worked in e-commerce. Maybe it’s changed in the last 5 years. But that’s where the ops sentiment comes from.

More proportionally or more in total? Just wondering what the cost/benefit calculation is like when deciding how much to invest in the iOS user experience

It’s a dark pattern of the platform honestly.

I can’t find a single free app even for a tiny utility without being forced into a yearly subscription with 7 days free trial. One of the many things I regret switch from android for.

Since the democratic of iphone users are mostly tech averse people I can assure you most of that are forgotten subscriptions.
